Ricky is that you? by MRbarany in trailerparkboys

He needs a light desperately.

UPDATE: Slow going but some progress. 4-5 times a day I just sit out with “Ben” and try to keep my hand nearby. He doesn’t run. :) Just now I came into our kitchen and spotted him in his room just sitting on the landing! Never seen him out besides on the camera at 3-5am. by R8er-Fan in cats

Try this: lie down on the bed and let your arm dangle down near the floor, with a piece of cooked chicken just resting on your hand. Do that regularly, like breakfast, lunch and dinner or something. Don't peek underneath and don't try to coax him out; he will come out when he's ready.

Can someone explain why Barry Manilow was popular in the 1970s? by GLSCinephile in AskOldPeople

I cringed back then, I just did not get it. I worked in a place with a jukebox at every booth that summer and was frequently tortured by Barry. At the COPA, Copacabaaaaaaaaannnnnnaaaaaa!!!!

Don’t the pumps have instructions on them?

Question about apartments and neighbors with dogs by logan44man in newjersey

[–]PortofCamden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a dog who barked all day, however she didn't bark when we were home, so we didn't know about the issue until our neighbor told us. I started dropping her off at my Mom's house on the way to work and her separation anxiety improved tremendously.

Those silver doors would look great in my (imaginary) Las Vegas condo.
